Comparing Character

This Term's challenge was to investigate a Character in a Novel. Students choose from a range of Novels, and they picked;

Hatchet - is about a boy trying to survive in the Wilderness after the small plane he was in crashed. 

Refugee - is about 3 young people from different countries and time periods, fighting to stay alive and find their way to a safe place to make a new life for themselves and their families.

Counting 7's - is about a young girl with autism who loses her adopted family and her growth to finding stability in a new family.

This Class on Air Lesson shows the discussion I have with students about how Brian from Hatchet grows from a boy who knows nothing about survival in the Canadian Wilderness to surviving.
